Clone Frankenstein

There are no poems to read or songs to sing
For the Clone Frankenstein
How typical!

Neither a human being nor a true monster is he
Such is the fate of a Clone Frankenstein
How pitiful!

Each night the creature has many a misadventure
Alone always alone
How comically depressing!

The Clone Frankenstein bleeds softly over window panes
For these are the tears of a pseudo-monster man
How toxic!

Ore ga kananashi
These are the words of the Kuron Furankenshutain
How unintelligible!

Pseudo-death will wander into his shade
For the end awaits the living or the dead
How confusing!

This is profound, somehow disquieting, but also very sad.

... and very well written!

Love,

Thank you.  This grew out of a joke in that my wife often calls me `Clone Frankenstein.`  She was feeling out of sorts one day so I ended up writing this extremely bizarre poem.  I`m not sure it cheered her up that day but she is okay now.

It is always wonderful to know the genesis
of a poem...

I hope it pleased your wife, that you could
poke fun at yourself...

it's not always easy when our spouses don't
understand our need to write...

in whatever genre we choose.

My wife may love me but as for the poem she says, `Sho mo nai.` which means awful.  It is great to have a critic in the family because it keeps you from becoming pretentious. ----- Lost readers struggle through a Clone Frankenstein poem---Hoping it will end, always hoping---How burdened!
